hmm interesting. Have checked some clips of George Benson. He certainly has that skill. Amazing!
I can also see now that to recreate
and expand on a complex jazz sound for example you would need to use theory to help you.
Thanks for your thoughts!
I often wonder to what extent guitarists (and other musicians) actually do improvise during their live shows and how much is rehersed. It will be a mixture of the two but I'd definitely prefer to watch a show where i feel more improvisation is happening.
Especially were you can see/feel the interaction between musicians in a smaller band and you know you're seeing a one-off show.
